Where We Sometimes Appear


This one small place beyond a stranger’s gaze
Here where the moon’s hatred fears to tread
We walked quietly yestertime wishing we were
Practically ruined sunlight in your front pocket
A scent of laundered cotton and that dirty
Fragrance remember that grungy aroma you
Became a way of feeling eating an orange
As if it were a sonnet penned by that ancient
Upstart Shockspur O madam please put back
Those half-sheathed claws yawn and stretch
And purr for chrissake here where every day is
April Fool’s and every night is Halloween yippee!
Let me be a huckleberry and you could pick me
Up after the show your eyes almost permanent
